I suppose some gunsmithing could be done to the forend latch to get a better fit if one were to change it to a splinter ? I guess it would also depend on just how thin you want it to be . I wonder if you could take measurements off a particular splinter forend to use for the inspiration for the redesign then work the forend latch to fit how you want it ?
Probably not economical on one of these 10 ga Spanish guns but I always thought it would be neat to take one and reshape the wood to look more like a classic double .
